particle physics, which studies elementary particles, the smallest units that make up matter, experiments using accelerators that accelerate particles and collide them with targets or with each other ...

Mark Thomson, the new head of Europe's physics laboratory CERN, has voiced confidence about raising the billions of dollars needed to build by far the world's biggest particle accelerator. CERN, the ...

Scientists have successfully activated the world’s smallest particle accelerator, a device as compact as a coin. This breakthrough, which could transform fields ranging from medicine to physics, ...

Texas A&M University professor Peter McIntyre and his colleagues want to build a particle accelerator around the rim of the Gulf of Mexico in order to discover the most fundamental building blocks of ...

Innovative machine learning techniques are rapidly transforming particle accelerator physics by integrating advanced data analytics with established accelerator models. This integration has led to ...

In a groundbreaking leap that seems almost out of a sci-fi novel, physicists have engineered a marvel of modern science—a particle accelerator so tiny, it could rest on a coin! Yes, you read that ...

Atoms will reveal their secrets—you just need enough speed to coerce them. Scientists have known this since at least the 1920s, when they first started firing particles at nuclei via large tubes ...

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – More than 30 of the world’s most advanced particle accelerators for research are built on one technology: superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) technology. It’s typically powered by ...
